'Angry Birds' Flock to webOS

"Angry Birds" the popular iOS game that has players launch volleys of birds at nefarious pigs, has landed in Palm's app store.

The Rovio game is one of the most downloaded games in 60 countries and the company is preparing to expand the franchise into a line of toys and possibly a feature film.
